After studying Alexanders work I like to make a specific pattern language for -inflatable architectural structures- in such a way that everybody can use these patterns as a guideline to create one’s own ‘living inflatables’ | After studying Alexanders work I like to make a specific pattern language for -inflatable architectural structures- in such a way that everybody can use these patterns as a guideline to create one’s own ‘living inflatables’ | ||

First I made a long summary and later I summarized it to the size that I tink general people are still willing to read this and they can using it as a tool. |
-For making a specific pattern language for -inflatable architectural structures- I based it on the Architects of Air’s (UK) inflatable -Luminarium-. The Architects of Air are specicialized in making inflatable libarinths, every year deepening their patterns, and in general people see their spaces as a real experience.

Most of them I came across during making the -Alive Inflatable- visual survey and for the rest I collected them from my own archieve, the most interesed ones I asked to send brochures so to put in Foam Library. | ||
